arm64: expose FAR_EL1 tag bits in siginfo
The kernel currently clears the tag bits (i.e. bits 56-63) in the fault address exposed via siginfo.si_addr and sigcontext.fault_address. However, the tag bits may be needed by tools in order to accurately diagnose memory errors, such as HWASan [1] or future tools based on the Memory Tagging Extension (MTE). Expose these bits via the arch_untagged_si_addr mechanism, so that they are only exposed to signal handlers with the SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS flag set.
